Role of Puppetry in Education
Role of Puppetry in Education in line with NEP 2020
Puppetry has been playing an important role in disseminating knowledge in most parts of the world. Puppetry imbibes elements of all art forms such as literature, painting, sculpture, music, dance, drama and enables students to develop their creative abilities. Puppetry has been used traditionally in India as a popular and an inexpensive medium to transmit knowledge about Indian myths and legends. Since Puppetry is a dynamic art form that appeals to all age groups, this medium of communication has been selected to serve as an aid for imparting education in schools. CCRT provides a comprehensive and an integrated training in the preparation, manipulation and production of such puppet programmes which may be used in variety of formal and non-formal teaching situations.
